Thanks for your comments, I am sure you are right.

It seems clear to me from what Bigredwarrior said that it was the stewards directing the police to enforce their ground policy that was ott.

For clarity, I do not condone people throwing toilet rolls as that is clearly not on.

My only point is that throwing a 15 year old lad out for throwing 1 toilet roll is OTT. I would have no problem if the lad had got a severe bollocking. But he missed the first derby game at Langtree (and we won!! )

On first hearing I thought it was harsh. Then I read about wakey & cas chucking plastic glasses at each other. Probably no more likely to cause injury than a bog roll. In the long term it's probably best that it gets through to people that throwing stuff in rugby grounds isn't really on, even though I do have some sympathy for the lad they made an example of.

Fair comment mate. Just reacting to other comments and a couple of photos. Keep up the good work!

I wasn't there at the game (I was in Turkey) but the fact that a 15 year old lad (who I know quite well) was kicked out for throwing some bog roll that didn't cause any harm, due to it reaching the pitch is WAY beyond me.

On another note, I've stood with the Brigantes for the majority of this season, home and away, and I can honestly say no trouble has been caused that has meant anybody being thrown out. We sing, we wave flags, we jump up and down and that's it. No violence or anything.

I didn't say you did!

One of the clubs concerns (I was told) was that due to the banner ban, "some" fans would make them on the day, at the ground.

I know you didnt, sorry I wasn't directing the quote at you personally.

There's no way we could make a banner on the day, there's not enough room, too much security and nowhere near enough time or the facilities. Each display this season has taken at least 8 hours to design and paint and thats with around 10 people doing it.

Neil Buchanan can knock one out* in 15 mins. Pull your finger out Paul.

*this isn't a reference to masturbation.

Yeah yeah

You mean the same group that formed in 2009 and haven't had one arrest since forming? That have a fantastic friendship with the club and are in constant contact with the club? The same group that banned one of there own mates from travelling on there coach to away games because he used spray paint at a home fixture and nearly had the group finished? The same group that gave money to charity....I could go on but I wont bother, before you come on here writing essays like a spokeperson from Wigan RLFC, get your facts right and do some research.

As for till rolls by the way, get a grip, its been done in loads of sports for generations. It unravells itself whilst in the air so no, it wouldn't harm or hit anyone in the head.

Enlighten us.......

In what way? Am I missing something? Has there been mass violence at a Wigan game? Have people been arrested? Or are you seriously suggesting with a straight face that throwing till rolls gives a club a bad name

Neil Buchanan is an amateur, Tony Hart could have it done in 5 mins maximum !!!!




*neither is this

Sad but true, also I believe Morph is in a sanatorium for mentally unstable plasticine models (unstable mentally, not unstable as falling apart physically, but then again, at his age ).
